Welcome to my Nebula Area FAQ for Megaman Battle Network 5. This guide was
written for the Team Colonel version, but it can be used for the Team
Protoman version as well since the biggest difference is the team navis used
in the liberate missions.
I have written similar guides for MMBN3 and MMBN4, covering their extra areas
as well. I guess secret area FAQs are my little niche here on GameFAQs. By
the way, if you didn't find this guide on GameFAQs, please let me know (see
Contacting Me section) since it shouldn't be there.
Now then, this guide is all about getting you through the game's final and
most challenging area, Nebula. You'll face tough Liberation missions, hordes
of powerful viruses, and battle plenty of dangerous navis, including *him*
before it's all said and done. Good thing I'm here to help, eh?

Before we jump into things unprepared, let's go over a few things. Wait,
before we even do that, have you defeated Nebula Grey? If not, go away, this
guide won't help you yet.
Going into Nebula Area without the right preparations is a bad idea. This
place is worse than the Undernet so you're going to need a decent folder. What
ever you used to take out Grey should be OK, as long as it wasn't made by
sorting your chiplist by "Attack" and taking the top 30 results. Try to keep
it within 3 or 4 codes, usually the viruses need more than one chip to bring
them down and you need to have plenty of digital ammo ready.
Here's what I used for most of Nebula Area. It's pretty much an altered
S-Slasher, nothing special, but it gets the job done.
Pulsar3 S x3
Sword S x2
Widesword S x2
LongSword S x2
FstGuage * x1
Invis * x4
AirHoc S x4
Areagrab S x3
Atk +10 * x3
Atk +30 * x1
SuperVulcan S x1
FullCust * x1 (Preset)
ShademanDS S x1
ShademanSP S x1
CrossDiv C x1 (Replace with Bass Anly once you get it)
Put whatever you like into your Navi Customizer. My only recommendation is
that if your Max HP is below 500 you should use the NaviCust to get it higher
so Megaman can take quite a few hits before being deleted. Maybe pack a couple
good recovery chips in the folder too, they can't hurt (assuming your opponent
doesn't have an AntiRecover :P).
Jack in to the message board in Nebula's base to get into Undernet 3. Nebula
Area is a stone's throw away. Head down the only way you can go and pass over
3 one-way panels, then take a left and follow one more one-way panel to
Undernet 2. Continue forward and you will see a golden program. As long as you
have Colonel's icon (defeat Nebula Grey) and 100 standard chips it will open
a portal for you. I already had 100 standard chips before Nebula Grey so it
shouldn't be too hard to get some more if you need to. Hang around the
Undernet and bust some viruses for awhile, or revisit some shops and buy a few
missing chips.
Once you've met both requirements the program will be happy to let you into
Nebula Area. You'll run headfirst into a Liberate Mission! How many times do
we have to kill Shademan anyways? Django needs to finish him off for good or
something...

Nebula Area shows you it isn't messing around here by tossing out a tough
liberate mission as soon as you enter. You've got to work your way up to
Shademan, unlocking 2 barriers and cleaning up 5 DarkHoles on the way. Megaman
looks a little nervous at first, being all alone. Fear not, Colonel warps in
and offers his help, as well as the aid of Numberman, Knightman, and
Tomahawkman.
Here's a basic map to give you an idea of where you need to go:

You have 12 turns to get this mission done if you want a battlechip as a
reward. 11 or 12 will get you a ShademanDS S chip, while 10 or less gives you
the BlackWing W chip.
The Barrier keys are located off in distant corners as usual. One is in the
top left corner of the large square you start in, the other is in the center
of 3 item panels at the end of the right path you can take when you get out of
the starting square area. Order points are quite rare here, so you'll want to
pick up as many as you can to make good use of your navis' special abilities.
Oh, and one tip for the boss, actually all Liberation bosses. Be sure you
remove the panels to the left and right of them. This will let you fight them
with an extra row advantage, allowing attacks to connect much easier.
After you complete the mission for the first time, you will recieve a bonus
chip, "JusticeOne J" from an unknown donor.

Nebula 2 consists of several warp panels, a shop, and a few items. From the
starting point, you've only got one path you can take. Step on the warp panel
and you'll be sent to a small loop of with 3 warps. Follow the one-way panels
and take the first warp to grab a Recover 300 chip. Return to the loop and
take the next one to reach a section with another blue mystery data and
another warp. Take that warp since it's your only option anyways and head down
if you have an Unlocker with you. Return to the square with the warp and take
the other way out of it. Go right to end up at a warp that leads to the shop.
If you've got the cash there's some good stuff there, including a few very
expensive HP Memories. When the spending spree is over go back to that fork
and take the left route to wind up at yet another warp, this one leading to a
gate blocking the entrance to Nebula 3. It requires 140 standard chips to pass.
Ah, now this section's title makes sense, right? Chances are you won't even be
close to this number yet (I was about 30 short when I got here). So go on a
little busting tour of the net and grab all those shiny new chips ending in
"2". Opening the Nebula Hole upgraded ALL the viruses on the net to their V2
form, in case you didn't notice. This could be a good time to use the Collect
NCP. With it you will always get a chip from a battle, never money. It can be
found in End Area 1, in a locked mystery data.
Go fight some battles, check out all the stores and buy any standard chips you
don't have, and of course pay a visit to the chip traders (located in Higsby's
shop, on the boat, and outside of the mines). Head back to Nebula 2 once you
have enough chips and prepare for another Liberation!

This time it's Cloudman who's trying to stop your advancement. We'll show him
though! Tomahawkman, Shadowman, Toadman, and Numberman show up to help. It
seems Colonel is busy and no word on Knightman. You'll have 14 phases to take
out this area, with a completion time of 12 phases or fewer will net you a
Muramasa M chip (sweeeet). 13 or 14 will get you CloudmanDS C. Now that you
know what's waiting at the end of the tunnel, let's get to it!
Once again, the map. Unfortunately, this area was too wide to fit on here, so
I have cut out a row on each side. Don't worry, all that's missing is 4 blank
panels on the end you start on, and 3 dark panels next to Cloudman.

There are 2 barriers again, but this time they are used for another purpose
besides simply blocking your progression. There are a few placed in spots that
force you to attack certain panels, or go around them and waste time. Use
Shadowman's ability to walk over dark panels to find those key quickly and
make your path much easier. Oh, that's right, you don't know where they are
yet...
Key #1 is at the southern tip of that patch of item panels right near the
first bonus panel you will reach. #2 is at the tip of that other little
peninsula sticking out right before the straight path to Cloudman.
Get the first miniboss and/or DarkHole out of the way and let Shadowman get to
the small patch of cleared panels next to the item patch that houses key #1.
Remember to make use of Toadman's melody to blast a straight line through a
large area of dark panels when it's needed. You've got a long time to finish
this one, so don't rush in too fast or you'll be overwhlemed. The DarkHole
battles especially can be very difficult if the enemy has too much of a
terrain advantage. On the other hand, many of the minibosses can be taken out
in one turn when faced 1-on-1. Use this to your advantage, as a 1-Turn
liberate can clear out many dark panels without spending any order points!
If you make good use of your navis' powers and watch your order points, you'll
be fine. After all, it gets harder than this...
Finish up the mission and check out where Cloudman was. What? Another portal
to a dark world? Aren't we in one? Seems we've only breached the surface of
this place. The golden program will be ready to open the door right away, as
far as I can tell. It mentions 140 SFrags, which you needed to get into Nebula
3 in the first place. It says something else about having the power to defeat
darkness too. I'm not sure if that means there was another goal I had already
met, or if the program was just trying to be mysterious and cool. This is the
kind of thing you can send me a message about, OK readers?
Anyways, opening this will upgrade the viruses again to V3. When you're ready,
take a deep breath and enter...

Here we are. Nebula 4 is full of gates with various requirements. 3 of these
gates are accessable as soon as you enter. 2 on the right guard items, while
1 on the left leads to another portion of the area. The gate leading into a
new section of the area requires you to have collected 40 Mega class chips.
Go fight some navis, or buy some Mega chips from the shops until you have
enough. Another gate accessable from the start requires you to possess 3 Giga
chips. These are CrossDiv C (Given to you by Baryl in Nebula HQ), BugCharge
(buy from merchant in Undernet, 100 Bugfrags), and Phoenix (buy from Higsby's
shop, 25000 Zenny). Behind that gate is an HP Memory. The gate right beneath
it says "Defeat your enemies throughout the Cyberworld". Have you met any of
those black navis that challenge you to a fight yet? There are 5 of them total
and if you want the GrabRevenge N behind this gate you have to beat them all.
Here's their locations: (thanks to GTspot for this info)
~Black Navi Locations~
1. In the crane computer, access it from Oran 2.
2. Right below the raised path in End Area 1 is a dead end. Or is it? Follow
the invisible path to reach a warp that will take you to Undernet 1. The black
navi is nearby.
3. Around the entrance to Undernet 3 in Undernet 2 is another one hiding below
a ramp (he's hard to see).
4. On the raised crossroads in End Area 4, take the ramp opposite the entrance
to End Area 5 down and step into the portal. The navi is in the small section
you can reach.
5. Go to SciLab 4 and get to that warp in the center of the area. He's there.
Back to Nebula 4, opening the Mega gate let's you reach 2 more. The first one
you will see tells you to "Drive yourself to the absolute limit". Your HP has
to be 900 or more without Navi Customizer enhancements. Grab the Z Saver
behind it if you can, and move on to another gate. This one asks you to get
ALL SFrags. Chances are you'll need to jack out and search around for some
missing chips now. Remember how the viruses were upgraded when you opened the
second hole? Go beat 'em up and finish off your Standard chip collection. As
usual, check stores and chip traders for some extra entries.
One more thing about the collecting standard chips. You can close both of
those holes in the Nebula area. Doing so will downgrade the viruses, so you
can fight some lower leveled enemies to get chips you may have missed.
Changing the virus level also changes what you can find in green mystery data
on the net. Be sure to check out all the possible items contained in various
areas of the net when looking for those last few pesky chips.
Get back to Nebula 4 when you've got them all and open that gate. You can now
enter Nebula 5 and start yet another Liberate mission! Before that though,
check out the first new gate you see. It's waiting for you to get all the
Darkchips, a rather easy request. Get them all and come back to it to claim
your DjangoDS D chip. There's one more gate you can get to now, it leads up to
the raised walkway. Up there is one final gate with a Giga chip in a locked
mystery data behind it! Talk about security! The first one asks for all P.A.s,
the second all Mega chips.

Megaman enters Nebula 5 and is soon joined by his teammates, minus Numberman
and Tomahawkman. Colonel says he was investigating something called "King
Chaos". He is apparently a collection of all the hate on the net. Fun.
Anyways, we've got other fish to fry. Cosmoman is guarding Nebula 6, with
Blizzardman leading the charge.
I was able to fit the whole map this time. I'll probably add more detail to
these once this gets posted.

Use Toadman's song to boost an ally so they can get key 2 & 3 from behind the
barriers. My strategy was to work my way up to the left first and get Key 2,
then work over and get Key 3 directly across from it. After those two are
opened, most of the area is available so just spread out and take out the
DarkHoles. It's pretty easy to reach Cosmoman well before the 16 phase par.
As for Blizzardman, he's a glorified miniboss here. Take out surrounding
squares to give yourself an advantage and finish him off. Order points didn't
seem too scarce this time, shouldn't have trouble with that. Remember, both
Colonel and Toadman can save, so use that function every chance you get. It's
great knowing you can take a few steps back if you mess up an important
Liberation. I can see this mission being done in 10 turns, it's really not too
hard.
Finish up in 14 or less, get Anubis A. 15 or 16 gets you CosmomanDS C. As
usual, 17+ yields Zenny.
Colonel will announce the offical disbandment of Team Colonel, but tells
Megaman to continue on. Wow, he's lazy. Anyways, no time to reminice now!
After all, we're not done here! Not by a long shot...

You'll notice a gate with a flame behind it when you enter. There are 6 of
these types of gates in the area, each one holds a Team Navi's DS form. Each
gate requests that you S-Rank that particular teammates' Omega version. Those
are the random encounter ones. Everything resets when you leave, so if you
can't open all the gates, don't bother fighting any of the DS guys. Go back
and S-Rank those navis. If you need a better folder I would recommend the
S-Slasher from the Renowned Folder FAQ, that's what I used.
Quick list of Omega/SP Navi Locations:
Knightman: ACDC 1
Shadowman: Oran 1
Tomahawkman: SciLab 4
Numberman: End Area 3
Toadman: End Area 4
Colonel: Undernet 3
You must fight the Beta/V3 form of the navi and jack out before you can
randomly encounter the Omega/SP. The Beta's are in a set location in the area.
Run around every inch of the place until you find them, or use this:
Beta/V3 Navi Locations:
Knightman: Square next to Lan's home page (where you enter when you jack into
his computer)
Shadowman: The end of the trail on the lower level right under the walkway to
the store.
Tomahawkman: Square on the left side from where you enter. You have to work
your way around to it.
Numberman: Take the first ramp off of the high level from where you get onto
it (if coming from End Area 2) and take a left (Megaman's left) as soon as you
get off the declining ramp.
Toadman: The only large square on the lower level with nothing on it. Close by
the square right before the End Area 5 entrance.
Colonel: Work your way to the back right corner of the area. He's on the empty
squre there.
Return to Nebula 6 when you've S-Ranked all the SPs, and open each gate to
fight it's corrosponding DS Navi. Be careful, these jerks will use all kinds
of chips you've made use of throughout the game. See Boss section for the full
strategy on these guys. Here's how the area is set up:
Chaos Lord
|
Toadman---| | |---Colonel
| | |
| | |
Numberman-| | |---Knightman
| | |
\____________|______________/
| | |
Tomahawkman | Shadowman
|
Entrance
Yeah yeah, I know. There's more to the area than this. Continue past Toadman
to reach a warp that will send you to the BugFrag trader. There's also an
invisible path between Colonel and Knightman that leads to a warp connecting
to the large panel beneath the whole area. There's an HP Memory down there, as
well as a locked LifeAura D. Man, that chip may be the only one available in
every single Battle Network game! Well, aside from some kind of Bass chip...
I really like this place because it's so similar to the boss re-fight rooms in
the Original, X, and Zero series games. Ah, good memories.
So anyways, beat up these chumps (whatever worked for their SP version should
work here) and open the main gate of purple flames. Step onto what must be the
furthest reach of the net and prepare to face Chaos Lord, an accumulation of
all the hate ever present on the entire world wide network.
A.K.A. Nebula Grey V2.
Use the boss section strategy if you need to and make junk data of this
hothead. After winning a mysterious voice commends you for your work but will
tell Megaman to continue fighting the evil of the world. Wow, Megaman's never
heard THAT one before -_-;
Oh, he'll drop MeteoKnuckle M too. Grab it and get the hell outta there.
Now then, Nebula 6 still has some tricks up it's sleeve for you. The next time
you go back the flames will have returned and you can fight all the DS Navis
again. Your busting time on them will determine which form Chaos Lord takes
when you re-fight him.
Average under about 25 seconds: Megaman DS
Average between 25 and 40 seconds: Bass*
Average over 40 seconds: Nebula Grey
*After you beat Bass here you will get Bass Anly F. You can now fight Bass
Omega in a random encounter in Nebula 6 too. Defeating him there gives you
Bass's icon on the title screen.

~|Sonic Sound|~ (120 Damage, Confusing): Shademan will open his wings and send
out a powerful sound blast. It pierces invis and will confuse you if you get
hit (directional controls reversed) so DODGE!
Area of effect:
[ ][ ][X][ ][ ][ ]
[ ][ ][X][X][S][ ]
[ ][ ][X][ ][ ][ ]
~|Bats of the Night|~ (120 Damage/bat): Shademan will send 3 bats after you.
Don't worry, they're slow. They may be too much for regular buster shots, so
try a charge shot or a chip to take them out. Or, like most attacks, load up
an Invis chip and relax.
~|Life Drain|~ (180 Damage): Shademan will appear in front of or behind of
you and use a trademark vampire attack, draining health and healing himself.
I'm pretty sure its the same amount every time, 6 hits of 30 damage.
Shademan's Liberate mission has a par of 12 phases. The rewards are:
10 or less: BlackWing W
11 or 12: ShademanDS S
13 and up: 5000 Zenny

==Cloudman==[CLOU]
//---------\\
1300 HP
Fought in: Nebula 3(Liberate Mission)
~|Bolt Ball|~ (120 Damage, Paralysing): The dark clouds that constantly hover
on Cloudman's area will send a small charged orb out in a straight path. Easy
to dodge.
~|Lightning strike|~ (160 damage): A lighter cloud will appear next to you and
send out an electric shock in a "+" pattern.
Area of effect:
[ ][ ][X][ ][ ][ ]
[ ][X][c][X][ ][C]
[ ][ ][X][ ][ ][ ]
~|Dark Skies|~ (160 Damage): A large and oddly shaped clould will form on your
side of the feild while a wind starts blowing you back. Hitting this moving
cloud damages you. Meanwhile Cloudman will vanish and several dark clouds will
appear on his side. One will be bouncing a little. Shoot it. That's Cloudman,
he will keep jumping from one cloud to the next until they are all gone. At
this point Cloudman will be revealed and vulnerable. Depending on where the
final cloud was this could be the only time Cloudman isn't in the back row.
Use this oppourtunity to smash him with some close range attacks if you have
any ready.
Cloudman's Liberate mission has a par of 14 phases. The rewards are:
12 or less: Muramasa M
13 or 14: CloudmanDS C
15 and up: 5000 Zenny

//------------\\
1600 HP
Fought in Nebula 5(Liberate Mission)
~|Snow Kick|~ (160 Damage): Blizzardman will kick 2 large rolling snowballs
down 2 rows. They're pretty slow, easily dodged.
~|Ice Breath|~ (160 Damage): He'll get into the front column and breath 2
squares ahead damaging you if you occupy one of those squares, and creating
ice panels afterwards.
~|Deadly Avalanche|~ (240 Damage): Blizzardman roles himself into a snowball
and launches himself down your row, afterwards 3 mounds of snow will fall onto
3 of your panels. Pretty high damage, watch out.
Blizzardman is in the Nebula 5 liberation, but only as a miniboss. He serves..
\\---------//
==Cosmoman==[COSM]
//---------\\
1500 HP
Fought in Nebula 5(Liberate Mission)
~|Cosmic Ring Toss|~ (200 Damage): Cosmoman will toss a ring up in the air. It
will land somewhere near you and spin around, travelling in 2x2 area. Kind of
fast and considerable damage, Invis is useful as usual.
Area of effect:
R - Where the ring lands
X - Area ring swings through
[ ][X][R][ ][ ][ ] [ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ]
[ ][X][X][ ][ ][ ] -OR- [ ][X][X][ ][ ][ ]
[ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ] [ ][R][X][ ][ ][ ]
It'll always look something like that, but in different places. ^
~|Cosmic Crash|~ (200 Damage): Cosmo will open some kind of warp hole above
you and a metoer will crash down through it right onto you.
~|Astro Satellites|~ (200 Damage): Cosmoman will stand at the back and send
out 3 large ringed orbs 3 squares wide at you. The rings can be destroyed, so
that should be your first option. When launched from the middle row it will
sweep through all squares, so Invis or a barrier to absorb the hit will help.
~|Galactic Void|~ (200 Damage/Object): Cosmoman will disappear and a large
dark "tear" will open at the back of his area. Many small pieces of debris
will fly out at you. They're fast, expect to take damage if you don't have a
defense ready.
Cosmoman's Liberate mission has a par of 16 phases. The rewards are:
14 or less: Anubis A
15 or 16: CosmomanDS C
17 and up: 5000 Zenny
\\----------------------//
-------------------------------==DS Navis==-----------------------------------
//----------------------\\
THe HP and attack strength of DS navis changes based on your own max HP (not
counting NaviCust bonuses). "1%YourHP" is just what it says, 1% of your max
HP. For example, 1% Megaman with 780 HP is 7.8 (rounded to 8).
\\-------------//
==Knightman DS==[KNIG]
//-------------\\
600 + (100 x 1%YourHP) HP
Fought in Nebula 6(first gate on the right side)
~|DarkSoul chip Replication|~ (Variable damage): As a DS Navi, he can and will
use several chips you've used in the past. Sometimes PAs too!
~|Wreck Launcher|~ (20 x 1%YourHP): If you are standing on the same column as
him when he comes out of his stonebody mode, Knightman will launch his
wrecking ball at you. It moves pretty fast for it's size, be careful.
~|Wreckage Crash|~ (20 x1%YourHP): Knightman launches his weapon into the
ceiling (the net has ceilings?) and 3 sets of 3 pieces of debris will fall
onto your area. Watch the shadows, and avoid them.
~|Royal Leap|~ (Cracks tiles): Not really an attack, but Knightman will jump
to another panel, cracking several in the process.
~|Iron Spinner|~ (30 x 1%YourHP): Knightman will spin his mace ball around
himself. He only uses this if you are close by him (ie: in range), so just
back off and you'll be fine.
\\-------------//
==Shadowman DS==[SHDO]
//-------------\\
500 + (100 x 1%YourHP) HP
Fought in Nebula 6(gate right of entrance)
~|DarkSoul chip Replication|~ (Variable damage): As a DS Navi, he can and will
use several chips you've used in the past. Sometimes PAs too!
~|Ninja Blast|~ (20 x 1%YourHP): Shadowman and any copies of himself on the
field will send a small explosion down the column they are standing(floating?)
on. Pretty slow, easily dodged if the explosion aren't on all 3 columns.
~|Shuriken Strike|~ (20 x 1%YourHP): Performed after Ninja Blast. Shadowman
will appear high above his current panel and toss down 4 ninja stars. They
are fast, but keep moving and you'll be OK.
~|Katana Slash|~ (20 x 1%YourHP): Shadowman, or one of his clones, will warp
in front of or behind you and slash. If it's a clone, just shoot it. If it's
Shadowman, hit him with a chip attack. Or for both, just MOVE.
\\---------------//
==Tomahawkman DS==[TOMA]
//---------------\\
600 + (100 x 1%YourHP) HP
Fought in Nebula 6(gate left of entrance)
~|DarkSoul chip Replication|~ (Variable damage): As a DS Navi, he can and will
use several chips you've used in the past. Sometimes PAs too!
~|Totem Pole|~ (Multiple effects, meteors 20 x 1%YourHP): There's a totem pole
on Tomahawkman's area the whole time. It can aid him in 3 ways. First, it can
send meteors at you. Second, it can make Tomahawkman invincible. Third, it can
recover some of his health. Shoot it with a charge shot to stop whatever it's
doing, but it can't be destroyed.
~|Boomerang Blade|~ (20 x 1%YourHP): Tomahawkman will toss his weapon out at
you. It'll will turn towards you when it lines up with you on a row if you
aren't on the same colomn as it. Keep that in mind and be ready to dodge it.
~|Tomahawk Strike|~ (25 x 1%YourHP): Tomahawkman will bring his Tomahawk up,
and swipe at you in a Lifesword-ranged attack. It's quite slow, just move out
of the way/Invis it.
~|Tomahawk Crash|~ (30 x 1%YourHP): Tomahawkman will jump up, spin around,
aims at you and crashes into that panel. That panel will break, and a
dustcloud will appear infront of Tomahawkman that will travel forward like
this:
T=place where tomahawkman made impact D=Dustcloud
[_][D][_][_][_][_] [D][_][_][_][_][_]
[_][D][T][_][_][_] 0.25 s later: [D][_][T][_][_][_]
[_][D][_][_][_][_] [D][_][_][_][_][_]
\\-------------//
==Numberman DS==[NUMB]
//-------------\\
500 + (100 x 1%YourHP) HP
Fought in Nebula 6(first gate on left side)
~|DarkSoul chip Replication|~ (Variable damage): As a DS Navi, he can and will
use several chips you've used in the past. Sometimes PAs too!
~|Number Balls|~ (20 x 1%YourHP): Numberman will stand at his back row and
summon 3 number balls that will advance on you. The number on them is their
HP. Break one or use an Invis.
~|Number Trap|~ (25 x 1%YourHP): Numberman will plant a mine in your area.
When you step on it a large 2x2 panel will come down and crush you. Watch the
shadow, and dodge!
~|Number Dice|~ ((5 x 1%YourHP) x number thrown ): Numberman will throw a die
3 spaces forward. It explodes shortly after landing in a 3x3 blast. You can
either destroy it or run.
\\-----------//
==Toadman DS==[TOAD]
//-----------\\
600 + (100 x 1%YourHP) HP
Fought in Nebula 6(second gate on left side)
~|DarkSoul chip Replication|~ (Variable damage): As a DS Navi, he can and will
use several chips you've used in the past. Sometimes PAs too!
~|Frog Splash|~ (25 x 1%YourHP): Toadman will toss out a small frog that will
jump from one square to another, leaving a water panel behind. Not too hard
to avoid. It leaves 3 water panels overall.
~|Shocking Melody|~ (20 x 1%YourHP, stunning): Toadman will open his mouth and
send a moving note after you. It's pretty fast, good time for an Invis chip.
~|Jump Slap|~ (30 x 1%YourHP): Toadman will pop up behind you and smack you.
The set up is pretty slow, so you can get out of the way without much trouble.
\\-----------//
==Colonel DS==[COLO]
//-----------\\
600 + (100 x 1%YourHP) HP
Fought in Nebula 6(second gate on the right side)
~|DarkSoul chip Replication|~ (Variable damage): As a DS Navi, he can and will
use several chips you've used in the past. Sometimes PAs too!
~|Justice Slash|~ (20 x 1%YourHP): Kind of ironic to name a DS Navi's attack
"Justice Slash"...Oh well. Colonel will attempt to hit you with his slash up
to 3 times (he'll stop once he does). This one is a little confusing, so a
diagram is in order. All of them assume Megaman is standing in his centre
panel.
Slash 1: Slash 2: Slash 3:
[X][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ] [ ][ ][X][ ][ ][ ] [ ][ ][X][ ][ ][ ]
[ ][X][ ][ ][C][ ] [ ][X][ ][ ][C][ ] [ ][X][ ][ ][C][ ]
[ ][ ][X][ ][ ][ ] [ ][ ][X][ ][ ][ ] [X][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ]
Note: Slashes are not always in the same order.
~|Colonel's Army|~ (15 x 1%YourHP): Colonel will drop 2 RockCubes on your
area. When you step onto the same column as one, they will turn into soldiers
and attack. There's a swordsman that will slash will a longsword, and a gunner
with a Vulcan-like 3-hit attack. Easily dodged, move up or down.
~|Colonel Canon|~ (25 x 1%YourHP): Colonel will activate a huge cannon and take
aim, taking some time to do so. Then he'll fire. If the shot doesn't hit you
it will explode in your back row. The blast will spread one square above and
one square below.
~|Cape Crusader|~ ((7 x 1%YourHP)x4 damage): Colonel will take his cape off
and will throw it on the panel directly infront of you.It will then move
forward in a straight line. If you get hit by it, you won't be able to move,
and Colonel will come up to you slashing you 4 times. Colonel will only use
this if he has low HP.
\\---------------------------//
==Chaos Lord: Nebula Grey V2==[CNEB]
//---------------------------\\
*Special Thanks to M-giddo for this strategy*
2500 HP
Fought in Nebula 6(first Chaos Lord fight)
~|Dark Raging Flame|~ (100 Damage): A purple hole will appear on a panel next
to you. A dark flame will come out and will go onto the panel you are standing
on, damaging you in the process. This attack will go on as long as NebulaGray
isn't doing any other attack.
~|Hell Fire|~ (200 Damage): NebulaGray will spit a flame on your field. This
flame will then continue to follow you for a few moments.
~|Darkchip|~ (Variable Damage):
Description: NebulaGray creates a darkchip that will turn into DarkMega and
he will use one of the following 4 attacks:
1) Darkthunder(100 damage) a thunderball that follows you around.
It will paralyse you if you get hit.
2) Darkmeteor:(150 damage per meteor) 10 meteors will aim at your posistion,
1 at a time.
3) Darklance:(200 damage) a darklance will hit the entire left column of
your field, pushing you forward if you get hit.
4) Darksword:(200 damage)DarkMega will slash a darksword.
~|Dark Dragon|~ (200 Damage):
NebulaGray will turn into a Dragonlike creature, will aim at
you, and then crash into that panel, damaging and cracking all the
surrounding panels too.
~|Leeching Hand Storm|~ (180 Damage):
Nebulgray will disappear, and then a storm of 20 hands that will
hit random panels come out of the hole. If you get hit, Nebulagray gets
270 HP healed.

---------------------------==Chaos Lord Revisited==---------------------------

\\-------------------//
==Form 1: Megaman DS==[CLR1]
//-------------------\\
2000 HP
Fought in Nebula 6(delete DS navis with average time under 25 seconds)
~|MegaBuster DS|~ (Psh, insignificant): Megaman DS like to use this a lot.
Fortunately, it's weak and doesn't stun. Not a threat.
~|Charge Attack: DarkSword|~ (400 Damage): Megaman DS will appear to charge
his buster and slash with a DarkSword (2x3 range). The charge is pretty quick
so this one could catch you off guard.
~|DarkSoul chip Replication|~ (Variable damage): As a DS Navi, he can and will
use several chips you've used in the past. Sometimes PAs too! Watch out for
Giga chips too, those'll hurt. I got CrossDiv'D once right in the center!
\\----------------//
==Form 2: Bass V3==[CLR2]
//----------------\\
3000 HP
Fought in Nebula 6(delete DS navis with average time between 25-40 seconds)
~|Buster Barrage|~ (200 Damage): Bass will load up his duel busters and go to
town on your area, shooting randomly. It's pretty hard to dodge this, but the
larger your area the more spread out his hits will be. This, his weakest
attack, will take out a LifeAura, so if you plan to use one pair it with a
Sanctuary or HolyPanel chip so it won't go to waste. Invis is always a good
alternative.
~|Hells Rolling|~ (300 Damage): Bass will move to the back of his area and
send out 4 dark wheels. The range of this attack is a little odd, I found that
standing either 2 or 3 spaces in front of Bass will confirm your safety,
believe it or not. Standing DIRECTLY in front of him however, seems still hurt
since Bass sort of thrusts his hands forward for the attack. They are harmful
to Megaman...I guess.
M = Safe(?) Panels B = Bass W = Wheel range
[W][W][W][W][W][W]
[W][W][M][M][W][B]
[W][W][W][W][W][W]
~|Dark Arm Blade|~ (200 Damage): Bass will move quickly and get right in front
of you or behind you and slash with a longsword (front) or widesword (behind).
He may follow that up with another slash or two, switching postions at the
same time. I found this to be his hardest move to dodge. If he gets behind you
and you cannot move forward it's very difficult to get out of range of his
widesord since you have to move twice in a very short time. A LifeAura +
Sanctuary combo will render his attack useless. Or, there's always Invis, the
most useful chip ever...
~|Darkness Explosion|~ (500 Damage): Bass will generate some dark energy in
his hands and move to spot B on the diagram. He will then release the energy
causing a 2x3 panel area to be cracked. You will of course be hurt if you are
on one of those panels. I'm not sure, but this attack may peirce invis, so be
careful. You should have areagabbed Bass at least once in this battle so stay
up front and you'll be out of danger. If not, the top and bottm right corners
are your only option.
B = Bass X = Cracked (damaged) panels
[X][X][ ][ ][ ][ ]
[X][X][B][ ][ ][ ]
[X][X][ ][ ][ ][ ]
~|Darkness Crusher|~ (500 Damage): Bass will leap into the air and create a
dark orb in his palms. The panel you are standing on will flash and Bass will
toss the orb down to it, creating a massive explosion that will hit (and
crack) all the surrounding panels. Ouch. This one hurts. If you're caught
without a guard, move to the top or bottom row and then quickly move 2 spaces
vertically when the attack is launched. As usual, you can just stand there and
laugh if you have an Invis or a barrier of some kind. You may want to walk
over the cracked panels and make them break so they will be restored ASAP.

Nebulgray will disappear, and then a storm of 20 hands that will
hit random panels come out of the hole. If you get hit, Nebulagray gets
270 HP healed.

Fought in Nebula 6(random encounter after you beat Chaos Lord Bass)
~|Buster Barrage|~ (250 Damage): Bass will load up his duel busters and go to
town on your area, shooting randomly. It's pretty hard to dodge this, but the
larger your area the more spread out his hits will be. This, his weakest

Yes, here we are, the final section. Here's where all the great people get
their thanks for helping me write this FAQ. Remember, if you're reading this
any site other than GameFAQs, it should not be here! Let me know right away!
Anyways, on with the credits...*cue credits song*
Special thanks to M-giddo for letting me use his DS navi Hp and attack power
formulas, as well as his info and strategies for Nebula Grey V2 and V3. Also
for reminding me about Megaman DS's charged attack.
Special thanks to GTspot for giving me information about several of the gates
in Nebula 4 and listing the locations of the 5 dark navis you must beat to
open one of them.
Special thanks to MegaBoy for once again making some AWESOME maps for this
game, just like he has for the last few MMBN games. These maps really came in
handy for quick references to certain item locations, when making my
Liberation maps. Thanks again, man! I really can't express how essential these
were to my FAQ.
Special Thanks to Capcom for making this great game and continuing the Megaman
legacy!
